Click here for VCP 2020 Certify and Upgrade Paths
On this post, I would like to show the Upgrade from the different solution track.
Unlike the Upgrade on the same solution track, there is no path to directly upgrade to the other solution track. You have to acquire the corresponding VCP first and take the target VCAP exam, just like the path of VCAP for the first time. Below is the overall image.
So the guidelines here are:
- No direct upgrade path to the different solution track
- Need to go through the path of VCAP Certification for the first time:
- Earn VCP first on the different solution track (same version/track of target VCAP)
- Take and pass the target VCAP exam
For acquiring new VCP, refer to the Paths to acquire VCP here.
Let me show an example on each solution track.
The diagram below is upgrade to VCAP-DCV solution track from the other solution track. In order to acquire VCAP-DCV Deploy or Design certification, it first need the required VCP-DCV certification. And then take and pass the corresponding VCAP exam. This is the same for VCAP5 and VCAP4 certification holders.
The diagram below is upgrade to VCAP-DTM solution track from the other solution track. In order to acquire VCAP-DTM Deploy or Design certification, it first need the required VCP-DTM certification. And then take and pass the corresponding VCAP exam.
The diagram below is upgrade to VCAP-CMA solution track from the other solution track. In order to acquire VCAP-CMA Deploy or Design certification, it first need the required VCP-CMA certification. And then take and pass the corresponding VCAP exam.
The diagram below is upgrade to VCAP-NV solution track from the other solution track. In order to acquire VCAP-NV Deploy or Design certification, it first need the required VCP-NV certification. And then take and pass the corresponding VCAP exam.
See you at the next post!
(The above paths and requirements are as of February 2020. These can be changed without prior notice.)
